actually, your issue is common problem. clean your heat sink and apply thermal paste.

I used vista for some time. Not long after each format, it will slow down. Defrag did not help that much. IDK why, I format my Vista a couple times a year. Now use windows 7. Much better.

or you can use extra storage for the SpeedBoost feature. Something like that, I forgot already.

As we know,
Unstable OS : Wins 95 = Wins ME = Wins Vista
Stable : Wins 98 = Wins XP = Wins 7

Nothing much can be done. Vista is more like crippled Windows 7. Windows 7 isn't really fast either. Every time upgrade, the hardware requirement increases. Can say that the OS keeps bloating.

Downgrade to DOS and it will become too fast that you cannot read the screen when listing directory laugh.gif

Guess you haven't worked with XP SP1a (or XP prior to SP2)... They are notoriously known to be extremely unreliable and buggy... icon_idea.gif

Vista was a revolution at that time, but the issue is PC manufacturers refused to ship machines with enough computing power to run Vista, as well as the prevalence of bloatware (which allows PC manufacturers to sell them cheaply) pretty much give Vista a negative impression. icon_idea.gif Poorly written device drivers contributes to this problem as well. icon_idea.gif

therevulsion Consider updating to Vista SP2 if possible. Vista SP2 is a major upgrade over previous Vista service packs. icon_idea.gif

Use lightweight software whenever possible, and check your HDD/RAM for any problems. Upgrading your HDD to a SSD makes a world of difference... brows.gif brows.gif

Do not use so called PC Optimizer to speed up your machine as they do not bring visible increment in real world performance.
